Excerpted from an article but good read:
College Football's offseason comes when its season is still decidedly ON, with players' newfound - and justified - free agency occurring while practices are ongoing and bowl games fill teh TV lineup. The sport's leaders - and that term is , of course, used loosely - have chosen chaos over order. The result is total confusion.
Lane Kiffin - Take it away:
"It's a terrible system" Kiffin told reporters "I wouldn't think any other sports, professional sports, have ever set up a system where free agency starts while the season is still on. So it really makes no sense. YOu can leave. You can stay. You can go any other place. Coaches from other schools can call you and our season is still going on. It would be like NFC AFC playoffs start in a couple weeks and all of a sudden "Hey free agency opens the week before".
